After listening to Liu Wenzhen's words, Zhu Changluo laughed.

"It turns out that Imperial Physician Liu also worried about five buckets of rice. Sure enough, a penny can stump a heroic man."

After Liu Wenzhen heard Zhu Changluo's teasing, she had no choice but to smile. In the past few days of contact with Zhu Changluo, Liu Wenzhen no longer regarded Zhu Changluo as just a five-year-old child. Liu Wenzhen felt that Zhu Changluo was independent and responsible.

Sir, every time Liu Wenzhen sees Zhu Changluo, he can't help but wonder what the future Ming Dynasty will be like. He is looking forward to the day when Zhu Changluo really grows up.

Zhu Changluo said: "Doctor Liu, don't worry, I will take care of everything. You have tried your best to help me treat my sister, and I will show my kindness and reason."

Then Zhu Changluo took off a jade pendant from his waist and said, "This is a gift my mother gave me when I paid New Year's greetings. I am small and I feel it is quite awkward to hang it on my waist, so I will give it to you. You go to the pawn shop

Change some silver to tide over the difficulties."

Liu Wenzhen saw that Zhu Changluo wanted to reward him with a jade pendant, but Liu Wenzhen quickly refused, "Your Highness, you can't do this. This jade pendant of yours was given by the empress, how can I covet it?"

Zhu Changluo forcefully pushed the jade pendant directly into Liu Wenzhen's hand, and even stepped on it with his feet. The height of this five-year-old child is such a shame! He had to put his feet on when handing something to someone, otherwise he wouldn't be able to reach it.

Zhu Changluo said: "This jade pendant is not worth much money. Even though it is an object in the palace, it is just that. Besides, as a prince, I am considered an elder. This is a gift from an elder. How can you refuse it as a minister?

What’s the point? Don’t you also look down on me, the eldest son of the emperor?”

When Liu Wenzhen heard what Zhu Changluo said, she felt frightened and said, "I don't dare."

Zhu Changluo smiled and said: "If you don't dare, then just accept it."

Liu Wenzhen: "But..."

Zhu Changluo: "It's nothing. Jingyang Palace was not rich to begin with, and my mother and concubine were not favored by my father. Now that we finally have someone willing to help us, I should repay the favor with a spring of spring. Although I only have one piece now."

Jade pendant, please accept it for now, and I will pay you the medical fee later when I have money."

Liu Wenzhen was extremely moved and said: "Your Highness has spoken seriously. It is my duty to serve Your Highness, so how dare I ask for credit. But..."

However, Liu Wenzhen couldn't say anything. If it were in the past, he would definitely refuse all the rewards from the nobles in the palace. But now that his salary has been suspended for two months, he still has to live this life, and the whole family still has to wait for his salary.

Living, so Liu Wenzhen had no choice but to accept Zhu Changluo's reward.

Just when Liu Wenzhen was moved, a eunuch suddenly came outside Jingyang Palace to deliver the order.

"Is His Royal Highness the eldest son here?"

The little eunuch asked very politely when he arrived at the gate of Jingyang Palace.

When Wang An heard that someone was looking for the emperor's eldest son, he immediately came out of Jingyang Palace.

The little eunuch saluted Wang An, "Your Majesty, good luck to you."

Wang An said: "What do you want from His Highness, the eldest son of the Emperor?"

The young eunuch said: "Your Majesty asked me to come to the Wenhua Palace to find the eldest son of the Emperor."

When Wang An heard that Emperor Wanli was looking for the eldest son of the emperor or wanted to go to the Wenhua Palace, Wang An was immediately overjoyed.

Wang An said: "The eldest son of the emperor is in the left wing. We will take you there right now."

Wang An took the young eunuch to find Zhu Changluo.

The young eunuch first saluted Zhu Changluo, and then said: "The emperor has spoken."

When Zhu Changluo heard that it was Wanli's oral edict, he was stunned for a moment, and then quickly saluted, "I send my regards to the Holy Lord."

The little eunuch replied on behalf of Emperor Wanli: "I am safe."

Then the young eunuch delivered a verbal message: "Please come to the Wenhua Palace, the eldest son of the emperor. Please accept this."

Zhu Changluo said: "My son, I accept the decree."

Then, the little eunuch took Zhu Changluo to Wenhua Palace. Before leaving, Wang An secretly rewarded the little eunuch with a few pieces of silver. The little eunuch happily left with Zhu Changluo.

Wang An couldn't help his joy and hurried to the inner hall of Jingyang Palace, "My Majesty, I am so happy. Your Majesty has summoned your eldest son, Your Highness, to the Wenhua Palace."

Concubine Gong cried with joy when she heard this.

The Wenhua Palace is located in the east of the Forbidden City, and Emperor Wanli studied here. However, the emperor's study cannot be called just reading, because in addition to the usual reading and lectures, there is also a grand way of reading, which is the "Jing Banquet".

The people in charge of the Sutra Banquet are usually bachelors from the Hanlin Academy. The Sutra Banquet is held three times a month in the spring and autumn when the climate is mild. At each Sutra Banquet, all the six ministers in Beijing, the censors, the cabinet bachelors and some officials are invited to the left and right.

All the courtiers and relatives of the noble title were present together, and during the ceremony, many censors also appeared in the queue to listen to the lecture.

The Sutra Banquet is usually held after the morning dynasty, and Emperor Wanli will arrive first under the protection of 20 Han generals.

In this elegant occasion, the Han generals also dispensed with armor and put on robes, but still carried indispensable weapons such as pumpkins. Emperor Wanli sat down in the south of the Wenhua Hall, and ordered all officials to enter, and performed courteous rituals

.

Then Emperor Wanli didn't wait for the officials of Honglu Temple to take action. He first said: "Everyone, please wait a moment. In addition to me, there is another person attending the Sutra Banquet today."

The ministers were astonished and could not think of anyone else. Just then, there was a song outside the palace, "The eldest son of the emperor has arrived."

At this time, the ministers realized that it was the emperor's eldest son who had arrived. Is this true or not? Could it be that the emperor had changed his gender and changed his mind? He was going to make the emperor's eldest son the prince? This is really a blessing for the country!

Emperor Wanli never expected that he would just ask Zhu Changluo to study as promised. He did not expect that these ministers would come up with so many political signals. If he knew that this would happen, Emperor Wanli would never let Zhu Changluo come to this Wenhua University.

The scripture feast of the temple is coming up.

Zhu Changluo entered the palace carefully. He did not expect that there would be such a huge formation in the Wenhua Palace today. Zhu Changluo did not dare to look too much. He respectfully went to the Wanli Emperor and saluted, "My son, I see my father. I wish my father happiness and prosperity forever."

,Longevity without borders.”

Emperor Wanli said: "Sit over. Today I will bring you to the Sutra Banquet. You can listen carefully to the lectures of the Hanlin officials, and I will ask you questions."

Zhu Changluo replied: "Yes."

Then he sat in front of a prepared desk.

At this point, the officials of Honglu Temple placed another book case in front of Emperor Wanli's throne, dedicated to the holy book; the other was placed a few steps away for the official lecture. The officials attending the lecture filed in and arranged the book cases.

about.

The sutra feast, like all other rituals, must have its own symmetry and balance for sight and hearing. The lecture notes written in regular script the day before were already displayed on the desk. Under the chanting officer's singing, the two people

The lecturer in red robes and the two exhibition officials in blue robes came out. They are all outstanding personnel in the Hanlin Academy.

The lecturer faced Emperor Wanli, and the secretary Zhan stood facing east and west on both sides of the desk. Then the lecturer kowtowed. After the kowtow, the secretary Zhan on the left approached the desk on his knees, opened the imperial book and handouts, and flattened them with a copper ruler.

At this time, the lecturer on the left has also moved forward, stood in the center, and began to speak.

It was also the first time for Zhu Changluo to see such a complicated way of reading. Under the fiddling of these civil servants, he almost fell asleep out of boredom.

At this time, it was finally done.

A lecturer from the left stood in the middle and began to talk about the "Four Books". The lecturer on the right was teaching history.

The lecturer said: "Confucius said: Knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing, it is knowing. What Confucius meant is that knowing means knowing, and not knowing means not knowing. This is the true wisdom. A gentleman learns and knows, and does not learn.

Perhaps, the way of a sage should be studied for a long time, review the past and learn the new, so that you can know it for a long time."

After the official lecture was over, Emperor Wanli asked Zhu Changluo, "Did you understand?"

Of course Zhu Changluo understood. Don't you have to keep studying and pretend to understand? But Zhu Changluo can't show it yet. Zhu Changluo secretly pinched his soft flesh and said with tears in his eyes: "Go back to my father, my son."

I don’t understand. My son is five years old and has not yet started school. He knows less than 100 words so far. The teacher’s words are very good, but my son’s words are confused and I don’t know what to do. Please father.

Punishment.”

Emperor Wanli was angry when he heard what Zhu Changluo said and didn't understand, but when he heard what Zhu Changluo said next, Emperor Wanli blamed himself.

Emperor Wanli said: "I usually ignore your study status. This saint's teachings are profound and unpredictable, and it is indeed not something you can understand at your current level. In the future, you should come to the Wenhua Hall often to listen to the lectures of the bachelors.

It’s best to learn all the characters first.”

Zhu Changluo pretended to be aggrieved and sobbed: "My son, I obey the order."

Then, the group of bachelors giving lectures got excited. In the future, the emperor's eldest son will come to Wenhua Hall to study. Such an important opportunity may not be wasted. You must strive for this opportunity!

So, a group of Hanlin scholars hurriedly knelt down and asked for the order, "I would like to enlighten the emperor's eldest son."

Emperor Wanli also did not expect that the Hanlin scholars, who had always been noble, would be rushing to enlighten Zhu Changluo. This is such a long time!

Emperor Wanli pondered for a moment, and finally came to his senses. These Hanlin scholars still have evil thoughts! They want to interfere with the inheritance of the Tianjia throne!

It is unbearable!

Emperor Wanli said with a gloomy face: "This matter will be discussed later. Today's banquet ends here."
